Saving grace 

This is where I pray for forgiveness.

This is where I break from the strain.

This is where I call on your mercy.

This is where I call on your name.

I have stepped off the path with deliberate steps.

Now I beg you to pull me back into your grasp.

I am broken and rusty, but you give me the best.

I am dirty and sick, but you wash my feet.

Lord, We are tired and worn and we ache to be home.

No words can say it right except yours.

I won’t pretend to be worthy to even ask for a drop.

But this is where I ask for forgiveness.

This is where I pray for your saving grace.
